The girls had no time to fix their wind-blown hair; they all turned around to see if the holy white light that Lord Lan had mentioned had appeared behind them.
Soon, a series of disappointed sighs were heard; none of the girls that everyone had their eye on produced the white light.
An Yuan'er felt a little cold and subconsciously tried to pull her cloak up higher, but unexpectedly, the cloak that she had been wearing disappeared at some point.
An Yuan'er turned her head and looked at Yi Chenli beside her with a puzzled expression. He was still smiling at her gently, with a hint of encouragement in his smile.
An Yuan'er felt a strange sensation.
Then, a chorus of gasps erupted behind her.
"It was a flash of white light."
"How could it be her? That's impossible!"
"She is clearly an impure person, and her improper conduct is common knowledge. There must be a mistake. It's impossible."
An Yuan'er turned around and saw that her white gauze dress was shimmering with white light, and the starry sky pattern on the hem made it seem as if the entire Milky Way was depicted on her skirt.
The girl's expression held a hint of bewilderment, which, combined with her somewhat childish demeanor, was shrouded in a hazy glow under the white light. In the blink of an eye, the girl was so beautiful that she seemed like a fairy descended from heaven, pure and ethereal, charming and captivating.
Everyone was amazed by the girl's beauty.
Such a woman is only found in heaven; she is rarely heard of in the mortal world.
The most beautiful woman in Shengjing should be Miss An Yuan'er.
An Yuan'er was very surprised. Although she always boasted that she was a fairy, it was just something she used to brag about. She never expected that one day it would actually come true.
She looked at Yi Chenli and mouthed to him, "What are you doing?"
An Piao'er gritted her teeth in hatred. She had long been used to being hailed as the most beautiful woman. She had thought that one day this title would be taken from her, but she could not accept that An Yuan'er had taken it away.
While everyone was still praising how wonderful the women of the An family were, with two great beauties emerging in succession, it seemed as if overnight, everyone had forgotten the vicious rumors that An Yuan'er had spread some time ago.
This was a golden opportunity to salvage the reputation of the women of the An family, but An Piao'er was blinded by jealousy. What she didn't have, An Yuan'er couldn't have either.
She gestured to her friends, and someone in the crowd spoke up: "Have you forgotten how the rumors spread? An Yuan'er has been involved with several men, how could she possibly be a pure and innocent person? Perhaps it's just a coincidence."
Lan Jingtang did not give the crowd any further chance to question. He stood on the Cloud-Viewing Platform and questioned the people below: "Do you all have any doubts about the prophecy of the gods? Disrupting the mandate of heaven and ruining the well-being of the Tiansheng Kingdom is not something we can bear."
The idea that disrupting destiny was so serious was something the ancients believed in. Even if they had such thoughts, they dared not utter a word and could only stare helplessly.
"Please give the order, Your Majesty, this miracle will soon be over. The next miracle will not occur for at least another hundred years."
King Tiansheng looked at An Yuan'er. Since she was chosen by the gods, he would naturally follow the will of Heaven.
He pointed at An Yuan'er: "In that case, you shall represent Tiansheng in praying to Heaven for blessings!"
Yi Chenli nudged An Yuan'er: "Go quickly. Don't be afraid."
An Yuan'er walked on the steps of the Cloud-Viewing Platform. She came stepping on white light and prayed for the Tiansheng Kingdom to have favorable weather and prosperity amidst the meteor shower.
Behind her were people kneeling on the ground praying for blessings.
There were expressions of envy, jealousy, anger... a complex mix of emotions.
